Overview

The 2023 Great Winter Hunt event takes place in Great Winter Taiga region, with 3 hunting locations: Cinnamon Hill, Golem Workshop, and Ice Fortress.
This region requires the rank of Recruit to access.

During this event, the Hunter aims to ultimately defeat Frost King.
That requires smashing the Shield in Ice Fortress with Hailstone earned from sending Snow Golems.

Mice in all 3 locations can drop a variety of loot to help the Hunter sending more and upgraded Golems to earn loot throughout the Kingdom.

Gameplay Mechanics

Snow Golem

A Snow Golem requires 1 Snow Golem Head, 1 Snow Golem Torso and 4 Snow Golem Limb to construct.
They can be sent to any non-event Location within the Kingdom, provided that the Hunter has the relevant Map Piece and Rank to access the location.
Snow Golems take 25 hunts by default before returning; this can be sped up with the usage of Festive Jingle Bell.
Upon their return, Snow Golems will award the Hunter with:

  • Hailstone, Reinforced Ice Shard, and any Bonus Items depending on the Snow Golem's level as stated in the table below.
  • Area Loot equivalent to the level of the Snow Golem, i.e. A Level 10 Snow Golem will have 10 slots of Area Loot reward as stated in the table below.
  • A Hunter can place a Magical Holiday Hat or a Magical Holiday Scarf on a Golem before it is sent out to receive 3 slots of the Magical Hat and 1 slot of the Magical Scarf rewards respectively as stated in the table below.
  • If the Hunter has an active Lucky Golden Shield upon claiming the Snow Golem's rewards after its return, the Snow Golem will also award the Hunter with 3 Gilded Charm.

Golem Level

The Hunter can use Reinforced Ice Shard to level up their Golems.
Higher level golems award more loot.
